Lime Paint

by Justin Thomas • July 28, 2004

This paint is made from natural ingredients and does not
contain acrylics or other plastics. The lime in it is slaked, meaning it
cures by reacting with oxygen in the air. Other ingredients include a type
of clay, marble dust, a natural glue and water.

This paint works on all wall surfaces, from wood to drywall to masonry.
It is intended for interior surfaces.

Lime paint allows homeowners and professional painters
to create these beautiful effects authentically. Painted on and left to
dry, lime paint has a lush, velvety look. Polished, the paint glows in
a way that’s unlike any other surface treatment. Walls appear to have texture,
but they feel smooth. People will want to touch them.
